Church Hill North maps to a single census tract in Richmond, VA and houses 1,637 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. 57% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Richmond rate of 31.1%.
At $870 a month, rents sit 37% under what the rest of Richmond commands. The severe-burden share is 28%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1/10.
The poverty rate is 28%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10. Court records for this tract carry 448 eviction filings.
Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 31.3% of renter households. Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 7/10.
Recent filings have not receded much: 23.1% in 2016 against a 31.3% peak. Among the 54 mapped neighborhoods of Richmond, it ranks #13 by risk, the upper third. For a like-for-like read, Oregon Hill and Oak Grove score within a fraction of it.
Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
